I am not sure when the last redo on the bags occured. I also am not sure that the accessory book I have has been updated all that well. They don't say they won't work but they don't say they will either. They look like they should, and although I don't care too much for the swoosh I dont think it would look as good to cover it with bars that don't line up.

I have put a set on my 2006 Roadglide bought from a member here. I found on ebay rk/electra glide saddlebag crash bars then bought new mounting rails (black L shaped tubes that the saddlebags rest on)from ebay too. They guards mount where the old rdglide saddlebag mounts bolt.
Should fit all up to 2008 model years as the part number changed for 2009.

Important note only by the hardbag rails as they are square in the rear and the leather rails are sort of curved .

thanks I was not sure if the actual dimensions would go around the hard bags. I can't tell from pics, but it appears the nostalgic rails clamp around the front guard piece rather than having holes through it like the EG rails they use now.
